WOMAN-OWNED & MINORITY-OWNED

Everyone loves candies, especially my kids, who have a special affinity for chewy candies. They were always asking for gummy bears, sour gummies, and gummy worms. I wanted to find a way for my children to enjoy these treats without compromising on quality.

So I started experimenting with the time-honored tradition of mochi cakes at home. I baked them longer, added different ingredients, and drew from my own Japanese heritage, relying on the chewy texture of rice flour. They were a huge hit with my kids and their friends, and Issei Mochi Gummies was born.

I hope these little morsels will bring joy to you and to your family.
